INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA ISAAC O. RUSSELL, OF INDIANAIOLIS, INDIA'NA, ASSIGXOR TO EINER C. RUSSELL, OF

PIPE.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known ,that I, Isaac O. RUSSELL, a citizen of the United States, residing atv Indianapolis, in the county of Marion and State of Indiana, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Pipes, of which the following is n specification.

' The object of my invention is to produce a bacco.

The accompanying drawing, which is a longitudinal section, illustrates an embodinient of my invention.

In the drawings, 1() indicates the bowl, 11 the stem and 12 the draft passage through stem 11. These parts may be of any desired form and arrangement.

Fitted within the howl 1() is a cup 13 for the reception of the tobacco. (.up 13 is provided'it its outer end with a portion 14 which fits the outer end of howl 10, and a flaiwe 1`5 which rests upon the end of the bo'\-I"\vhile the lower portion 14 of the cup is smaller than the interior of the bowl leaving an annular spr ce between such lower portion of the cup and the main bowl of the pipe. 'Cup 13, at its bottoni end for a consider: le distance. upward therefrom, is iniperfora-te, as at 16, but, near its upper end but below the portion 14, cup 13 is perforated in one or more series 17.

The operation is as followsz-The arts having been assenibied as shown in t-hr t rawing and the cup 135 filled with tobacco, i. draft through passage 12 draws the smoke di- Specification o! Letters Patent. Application led October 12, 1907. Serial No. 397,043.

Patenterl Aug. 11, 1908.

rectly off from the burning up er portion o f the body of tobacco through t ie uppermost series of perforations 17, that. being the line of leastiesistanee. 'hen the burning body of tobacco shrinks below the lowest )erforations 17 the smoke is drawn upward rom the tobacco. By this arrangement I am able to obtain a cool fresh smoke throughout the entire load.

I am aware tiiat heretofore pipes having perforated tobacco cups have been shown in prior patents, such for instance as No. 74,050 of February 4, ISGS and No. 90,554, May 25, ISIN, but the cups iii these pipes were perforated at the bottom and hence thc smokeY was necessarily drawn down through the unburned tobacco.

I claim as my invention:

A tobacco pipe comprising a main bowl, a perforated d raft -stein eoiiiniunieatiiig with said bowl, and a reeeiving cup mounted in the howl, said receiving cup at its upper end being provided with a portion 14 which lits the main bowl, a flange resting upon the upper end of the bowl, and a lower portion heneath portion 14 and smaller than the inain bowl so as to be paced from the interior thereof, said cup being;v provided with a set of perforations through its wall closely beneath the portion". a' and another set ofperforations below the first Set but a considerable olistnnce above the bottom of the cup substantially as and for the pu ose. set forth.

In witness whereof, have hereunto set my hand and seal at Indianapolis, Indiana, this ninth day of October, A. l). one thousand nine hundred and seven.
